We've decided to stop the Kickstarter campaign. Seems like the costs were too gigantic and we too optimistic, so it seemed cleverest to pause it for now. Things seem to be changing fast; perhaps in a year, even months, there will be a far cheaper way to reprogram this. We are extremely grateful for the help we got, though, and want to extend a big thank you to all our contributors, great and small. You guys generously offered your own hard–earned money to something bigger than yourselves that you believe in, and we are deeply touched by your contributions. Once again, thank you. We are still looking at ways of making this happen so send your email address to kickstarter@bjork.com and we‘ll keep you posted when there‘s any new developments.

Recall that the Biophilia app features a mini-app to go along with each of the album's ten songs, and is being used as part of the Biophilia Educational Program. Björk initially launched the Kickstarter after receiving "lots of international requests for alternate versions of the app, many of which have come from areas with families on low incomes and schools with low budgets."
